Important Bear-Cupcake News of the Day

Because it's Friday: today's most important food news comes to us from Juneau, Alaska, where a real-life sort-of-Goldilocks-and-the-Three-Bears scenario played out at a child's birthday party.

According to local news reports, a 180-pound bear crashed through the skylight of one family's Juneau home. It landed in the living room, where he calmly "feasted on cupcakes" that had been laid out for a children's birthday party.

"I was literally in the room, and I heard this cracking," homeowner Glenn Merrill told the Juneau Empire. "And the next thing you know, there's this bear that, I mean, literally, fell right from (the skylight). It was one metre away from me."

After watching the bear eat a few cupcakes, the couple apparently "yelled at the animal until it casually walked out of their residence."

Police later killed the bear because, according to officials, it "posed a threat to human life."
